Re: Have a dreamaker X-500 Only get air on one side out...
Either an air line has become disconnected, or the air valve on the spa is clogged/broke.
If this is a blower model and not a venturi tee air injection system, the lines on the one side probably blew off.

id say even though you think your air induction valves are closed they in fact are not , if all the jets get air in them look for leaks in pump or piping this might be more evedent if run slow or off as pump cant suck air in hole if its off , if not air induction valves can be rebuilt by obtaining the parts from mfg
1. Check equipment like pump, heater, blower, light fixture, for leaks. 2. Remove side panels closest to the are the leak is showing and inspect jets, plumbing in that area for leaks. If insulation is foam, remove any water saturated foam and follow it to the source of leak.
3. If the leak is in plumbing and is very slow, sometimes it can be resolved with "stop leak" products.
You failed to tell me what year and model bike you have this S&S carb installed. If you have the carb on a Sportster, it should have a 26.5 slow jet and a 66 main jet in it. If it's on a Big Twin, it should be jetted with a 28 slow jet and a 70 main jet. Of course, depending on the exhaust system, the air filter, other equipment on the bike, and your location, the jetting could vary a step or two either side of these sizes I've given you. Another area of concern with the S&S "Super E" model is the adjustment of the accelerator pump. Most people get the accelerator pump set too rich with too large of a "pump shot". This adjustment has to be made according to the way the bike reacts to a roll on of the throttle while riding. You cannot get this set correctly by adjusting it in the shop. For instructions on how to jet your carb, go to the S&S Cycles website and click on "Tech Info". Then click on "Installation instructions" and "fuel systems". Look for the the instruction sheet number 51-1012. http://www.sscycle.com/instructions/instructionslist.php?x_cat=24 This will give you a starting point to jetting yoru carb. Keep in mind that when dealing with an air cooled engine, it's better to be slightly rich rather than too lean. Lean mixtures create a lot of heat.
